    Hello,

    on my 21.3 Sandbox enviroment i can't find the UiPath connector. Also in the Process Designer there are no UiPath activities. Is a content package upload needed? The Webhook creation with the Processor "RPA" is possible. But nothing else.

      Hello Tobias Gã¼nther,

      Thank you for reaching out to us. 

      Perform the following steps to review if the UiPath bundle is installed on your system:

      1. Log in to BMC Helix Innovation Studio.
      2. Search for the UiPath bundle.
        • If the bundle is available, connect it in Digital Workplace Catalog.
        • If it is not visible, install the UiPath bundle first, and then connect it in Digital Workplace Catalog.

      Hope this helps. Please let us know if you need more information.

      Thank you,

      Sripriya
